cynics. . .
you're looking at it the wrong way. drugs/cannabis being illegal at all is a symptom of oppression, and one which is having a hard time staying on it's feet in today's world (look at mexico). even if the establishment merely bandages the symptom over by legalizing drug use and regulating it, regulation is a symptom indicative of the very same ailment and will thus be ousted by the same social pressures.
there's much more urgency in this situation and a much greater will for something better than you zany cynics give us credit for. at home and internationally, the situations which poke and prod us toward peace, justice, progress and sustainability are myriad. the world is literally filled with them, and there's got to be a breaking point. i think we're approaching that critical mass, and how we adapt to relieve the pressure will decide whether our civilization will start working right or go the way of our ancestors. because we sure as hell can't afford to keep pussy-footing around it like this, and even the establishment will wise up once they realize how they're threatening their very livelihood by keeping it up.
